Enjoyed the Vrbo. Had a sailboat which made parking difficult. Was able to rent parking from the hotel down the block for &10. Cuban Restaurant down one block was amazing!

Couldn’t be happier with the stay
Spent 3 nights at Edna’s with my family and it’s such a wonderful place. I took my 90y/o grandmother back to her home town for some site-seeing. The place is in a quaint little historic neighborhood and parking was never an issue for me, had a spot right in front of the address nearly every time. Loved staying in an old historic house with all the quirks that come with it, wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Edna is very accommodating and quick to respond; she’s the ideal Airbnb host. Wish we would have had an opportunity to eat at the Cuban restaurant a few doors down.

Wonderful Stay
We visited Hershey Park and stayed here. Honestly, we enjoyed Harrisburg more than we enjoyed Hershey Park. This was a perfect location, close to so many amazing restaraunts. Parking was never a problem at the VRBO and there was so much space. Very clean and we would recommend staying here to anybody. Thank you!

Convenient Location
Nice place to stay for our family. Convenient access to I-83. We enjoyed the Cuban restaurant nearby. Good kitchen facility. Good area to walk our dog. Parking sometimes challenging, especially during the busy Shipoke flea market.

My friends and I stayed here while attending a concert at the Hershey Stadium (about 20 away). We loved this house! Very roomy and clean. Also, so thankful we were able to check in a little earlier.

Capitol visit landing space
This house was a comfortable and clean landing space for a two-day capitol visit with kids. Shipoke is a sweet little neighborhood next to the Susquehanna, with a lovely river walk just a block away. In the evening parents enjoyed the back garden, which was nicely sheltered from the rain, while the kids were cozy in the living room. We will definitely book again next time we're in Harrisburg.

Great Location Great Fun
This is a superb place to stay in Harrisburg. Especially if you need 3 queen size beds for 3 couples. We had an absolutely delightful time. Our only challenge was that there is only one shower and there is no bathroom on the top floor where 2 of the bedrooms are located. Be sure to walk down the river front and take in a minor league baseball game or miniature golf on City Island. Lovely city, very friendly people.

Five Star Location!
The neighborhood is delightful. We enjoyed walking along the river and eating at the fabulous Cuban restaurant around the corner. The house was easy to be in and was plenty of space for our group of five (all adults). The only minor critique I might have is while high traffic areas were very clean (five stars!), some lesser-used parts looked like they could use some attention (the layer of dust on our ceiling fan were gnarly). We'd happily stay here again, though, and would recommend it!
